I’ve had to restart a whole blog. I previously was using WordPress with a hosting service. They went belly up and my whole database gone!! I should’ve known this would happen, for what I was paying and what they gave me. Yes I had a backup, but on their server. I was paying just over $100 a year and just renewed too. I’ve tried to contact them, only to see if I could get the database, but no response. Good thing I still have my url.

Now I need start posting from scratch again, but I will repost a few things.

Because I liked Wordprees so much, I was going to use the free version of WordPress, but it’s so limited. Looked at Blogger, Typepad, Live Journal, Virb, and a few others, but they’re all so limited as well, unless you upgrade to the pay extra options. Then I stumbled on to Tumblr, they have exactly what I need, and all free.

I been messing around with Tumblr for the last few days, and so far I love them.

So much has been going on since my last post, but I’m starting fresh and will update often.

Lesson learned – BACKUP – locally and online.
